UNDP ART Initiative - Lebanon
The “Nijmet Al Sobeh” women’s cooperative was first established in 1998 with the aim to improve the conditions of rural women in Rashaya district. It is now run by 20 women and produces all types of jam and Lebanese “Mouneh” or stocks of food for winter days. The cooperative has outlets to local, regional and global (European and American) markets.
ART Lebanon supported these women through procurement of needed equipment as well as building their capacities to better improve their work, efficiency and marketing skills.
